About me

Hi there! I'm Brandon Argel Verdeja DomΓ­nguez, and I'm 23 years old.

I'm interested in high-impact projects that allow me to combine different frameworks and technologies, culminating in delivering added value to its users.

I am an education enthusiast, so I am constantly learning foreign languages like English, and French, programming languages, and public speaking, as they are tools that will help me share with more people and grow together.

Shortly before graduating from Jorge Matute Remus Polytechnic Computer Engineering, I began my studies at Platzi and I decided to adopt their motto:

Never stop learning

Since then, I've focused on learning everything about web development, and I've had the privilege of working with amazing people and companies.

My main focus is building accessible, performant and awesome websites. I'm always looking for new challenges.
